Aluminum Pedal Service Instructions

We recommend you service your pedals every 50 hours of riding, or anytime you feel your pedals are no longer spinning smoothly.

To service the pedals you need to re-grease the pedal axle and bearing assembly. This is extremely quick and easy, and should take you around 5 minutes.

Full details below.

Tools required

Waterproof grease, toothbrush, and cloth

8mm hex

2.5mm hex (for full bearing replacement)

Crescent wrench or vice

Pliers

STEP 1: Pull off pedal washer / seal assembly from end of axle

STEP 2: Use a cassette lockring tool to remove the bearing lock nut. Engage the tool into the bearing lock nut splines. Use a vice to hold the cassette tool and rotate the pedal to loosen. Alternatively secure the pedal against a wooden surface with your hand and use a crescent wrench to loosen the nut.
